GuaB Activity Is Required in Rhizobium tropici During the Early Stages of Nodulation of Determinate Nodules but Is Dispensable for the Sinorhizobium meliloti–Alfalfa Symbiotic Interaction [PDF]
The guaB mutant strain Rhizobium tropici CIAT8999-10T is defective in symbiosis with common bean, forming nodules that lack rhizobial content. In order to investigate the timing of the guaB requirement during the nodule formation on the host common ...

Defining the mutation sites in chickpea nodulation mutants PM233 and PM405
Background Like most legumes, chickpeas form specialized organs called root nodules. These nodules allow for a symbiotic relationship with rhizobium bacteria. The rhizobia provide fixed atmospheric nitrogen to the plant in a usable form.

Phylogenetic analysis reveals an ancient gene duplication as the origin of the MdtABC efflux pump. [PDF]
The efflux pumps from the Resistance-Nodulation-Division family, RND, are main contributors to intrinsic antibiotic resistance in Gram-negative bacteria. Among this family, the MdtABC pump is unusual by having two inner membrane components.

Unraveling new molecular players involved in the autoregulation of nodulation in Medicago truncatula
We provide new insights into the autoregulation of nodulation that allow us to better understand how the legume Medicago truncatula restricts further nodulation once enough nodules have been formed.

Nodule formation in Rhizobium-legume symbiosis is negatively regulated by ethylene. Ethylene inhibitors such as L-α-(2-amino-ethoxyvinyl)-glycine (AVG) and silver ions (Ag+), the ethylene-insensitive sickle mutant, and transgenic plants were used to ...

The Role of Flavonoids in Nodulation Host-Range Specificity: An Update
Flavonoids are crucial signaling molecules in the symbiosis between legumes and their nitrogen-fixing symbionts, the rhizobia. The primary function of flavonoids in the interaction is to induce transcription of the genes for biosynthesis of the rhizobial

The 2HA line of Medicago truncatula has characteristics of an epigenetic mutant that is weakly ethylene insensitive [PDF]
BACKGROUND The Medicago truncatula 2HA seed line is highly embryogenic while the parental line Jemalong rarely produces embryos. The 2HA line was developed from one of the rare Jemalong regenerates and this method for obtaining a highly regenerable ...

Abiotic and Biotic Limitations to Nodulation by Leguminous Cover Crops in South Texas
Many farms use leguminous cover crops as a nutrient management strategy to reduce their need for nitrogen fertilizer. When they are effective, leguminous cover crops are a valuable tool for sustainable nutrient management.

FFECT OF SOME HERBICIDES AND NITROGEN FERTILIZATION ON NODULATION GROWTH IN LENTIL CROP (Lens culinaris MEDIC [PDF]
The factorial pots experiment was conducted in order to investigate the effect of some herbicides ( Trifluralin 2.4 , 3.2 , Focus ultra 1,2 L/ ha) with check treatment and nitrogen fertilizer ( 0.0 , 40 , 80 kg N / ha) on growth of nodulation in 2005 ...
